Recenzii

Short for all that is packed in here, Women in Ancient Rome: A Sourcebook covers Rome's Beginnings, the Early and Mid-Republic, the Late Republic, the Julio-Claudian Period and the Later Empire ... [A] very useful book.
The book has a nice blend of chronological structure and thematic groupings to help both the instructor and student make useful connections between the selected texts both within and across time periods. . It offers a wide-ranging and thoughtful selection of different source materials, which would enable fruitful discussions about what the reality of daily life for women may have been and the challenges of reconstructing such a picture along with the complexities of interpreting their literary representations.
By superbly selecting, arranging, translating and contextualizing a wide array of literary and inscriptional sources, Bonnie MacLachlan has made a peerless contribution to the study and teaching of women's images and lived realities in ancient Rome. This magnum opus-with its testimony about women of all ages and social classes, from legendary times to late antiquity, and all corners of the Roman empire -deserves, in the words of the ancient Romans, ourmaximae gratulationes.
An introduction to Roman women well tailored for the beginner. Bonnie MacLachlan has chosen excerpts from landmark texts and integrated them, along with representative inscriptions, into a lucid narrative history of Rome, with new translations and basic bibliography.
